Default REDRUMS M5 Facelift

Hey guys do you remember this project by redrum which in my opinion turned out to be an awesome build, Here is my question, If I did this same build on my 550 I dont have the m5 front or rear, will it still work? since they have to be cut either way to mate with the m1 front and that carlsson amg rear diffuser you guys think itll work? or some other one because I think I read on redrums thread where he posted that diffuser was discontinued, my question though is does it HAVE to be those m5 fascias being cut up? in order for this mod to be done?

you could probably use your non M bumper for the front for that 1m bumper transplant since the whole bottom needs to be cut down anyways. The rear doesnt look like it though..

That still doesn't answer your question though, If it can be done on a NON "M" bumper...

As far as I know the M5 bumper has the lines that match the 1M lines. The non M5 does not.
